1–2 Overview of Hitachi Volume Shredder

Data security practices and Volume Shredder

The Volume Shredder software enables you to securely erase data on

volumes in the Hitachi Virtual Storage Platform G1000 storage system by

overwriting existing data to prevent restoration of the erased data. For

example, when the user of a volume changes, you may want to purge the

data stored by the previous user before giving access to the new user. This

method of erasing data by overwriting it with dummy data is referred to as

shredding.

Because of the way data is written on the drives, overwriting data once or

twice might not be enough to ensure that the data cannot be restored. The

best practice is to overwrite data at least three times with dummy data.

Volume Shredder allows you to specify the number of times the data is

overwritten, enabling you to ensure compliance with applicable

requirements (for example, DoD5220.22-M).

Supported volume types

You can use Volume Shredder to shred both open-systems and mainframe

systems, including logical devices (LDEVs) and custom volumes (CVs) of all

emulation types. External volumes and Dynamic Provisioning virtual

volumes* can also be shredded.

*When a shredding operation is performed on an unused virtual volume for

Dynamic Provisioning, no dummy data is written to the volume.

You cannot use Volume Shredder to shred the following types of volumes:

• Pool volumes

• Virtual volumes for Thin Image

•Journalvolumes

• Volumes that are not write-enabled (access attribute is not read/write)

•TSE-VOL

Volume Shredder operations

The following figure shows user data that is being overwritten three times

(default value for number of overwrites). Volume Shredder overwrites data

using the following dummy data values:

• The first overwrite is 00.

• The second overwrite is FF.

• The third overwrite is 00.
